About Gergana

Dr. Gergana Ganeva welcomes people seeking support around major life changes and relationship challenges. She offers a calm presence and a collaborative style, helping clients talk through anxiety, stress, grief, parenting concerns and intimacy issues. Her tone is warm and non-judgemental and she aims to create a space where people can be themselves.

Gergana describes her work as humanistic and integrative. She draws on client-centred principles and emotionally-focused ways of working, and also brings existential and Jungian perspectives into conversation when they help. Sessions can include talking, creative or embodied methods according to what each person needs.

Her background spans roles as a psychologist, social worker, counsellor, talking therapist and art psychotherapist. Over many years she has supported people through relationship difficulties, bereavement, trauma and questions about meaning and identity. This breadth informs a flexible, person-focused way of working.

In practice she tends to favour a process-led approach. That means conversations unfold at a reflective pace and the relationship itself is central to the work. She also recognises when clearer structure or targeted strategies would help and adapts accordingly.

Gergana works with international clients and welcomes people from different cultures and life circumstances. She believes therapy is a co-created process and aims to help clients notice patterns, reclaim their strengths and move toward clearer choices in their lives.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on meeting people with empathy and respect, helping them feel heard so they can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. It is useful for anxiety, self-esteem and relationship concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift patterns in close relationships by tracking emotions and interaction cycles, which can help with intimacy and communication issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences. That may mean trying different ways of working early on and checking in about what feels useful.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during breaks or from different locations. It can also accommodate shorter check-ins when needed and make it simpler for international clients to connect. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt verbal, creative and embodied methods for remote sessions so the work remains practical and focused.
